This study investigated the performance of photocatalytic titanium dioxide microfiltration membranes with an average pore size of approximately 180 nm and ultrafiltration membranes with an average pore size of around 40 nm fabricated with the suspension plasma spray process. The membranes were evaluated for their filtration performance using SiO2 particle ...

The removal of NH4+, NO3-, and NH3- from wastewater can be difficult and expensive. Through physical, chemical, and biological processes, metals and nutrients can be extracted from wastewater. Very few scientific investigations have employed surfactants with high biodegradability, low toxicity, and suitability for ion removal from wastewater at different ...

Membrane fouling is an ongoing challenge in the membrane filtration process. Herein, a photocatalytic membrane comprising a reactive layer was fabricated by engineering partially reduced graphene oxide/Ag nanoparticles/MIL-88A (prGO/Ag/M88A, pGAM) photocatalysts on the PVDF substrate membranes. Benefiting from the high conductivity of prGO and the surface ...
